Scott Winegard, da Matthew Kenney Cuisine, qualificou a FabaButter como impressionante.
16 mar 2019 – No ano passado, a Fora Foods, uma startup que surgiu no bairro do Brooklyn (NY), nos Estados Unidos, lançou uma manteiga vegana à base de aquafaba, a água do grão-de-bico cozido, com óleo de coco.
O produto que recebeu o nome de FabaButter não é transgênico, não contém óleo de palma e substitui a manteiga tradicional em receitas.
É isso que tem agradado chefs da alta gastronomia, como Scott Winegard, da Matthew Kenney Cuisine, que qualificou a FabaButter como impressionante.
A partir da aquafaba, matéria-prima obtida com produtores de homus, a Fora consegue aproveitar o amido e algumas das proteínas do grão-de-bico – assim funcionando como um emulsificante natural e a tornando adequada no preparo de muitos pratos.
Outro diferencial é que a FabaButter tem uma pegada de carbono quatro vezes menor do que a da manteiga baseada em leite.
